Money withheld by state comptroller as not creating debt for constitutional purposes

Official statutory text

Sec. 8. If a statute provides that amounts due under a loan to a political subdivision (as defined in IC 36-1-2) or a local public improvement bond bank shall or may be withheld by the state comptroller from other money payable to the political subdivision or bond bank upon failure to make repayment of the loan, the requirement or permission to withhold amounts due under the loan does not create a debt of the political subdivision for purposes of the Constitution of the State of Indiana.
